Interview: Peter Krause on 'Parenthood', the Cast and Reality TV

Peter Krause stars in the NBC family-centered drama, Parenthood. But long before that, I spent a good chunk of my adolescence watching him act as Nate Fisher on the HBO drama, Six Feet Under. To this day, I look to that series as life-changing as it examined life and death in ways that just weren't discussed on television. I couldn't help myself, so I went up to him at the NBC party and we discussed the impact of Six Feet Under, what he's watching on television these days, and just how much he loves his television casts: past and present.

I just wanted to thank you for Six Feet Under, a show that has deeply affected my life. How has that show affected you?Peter Krause: Wow, ummm.
